Researchers at Uppsala University in Sweden have developed a robot that can assess various combination therapies for cancer, analyzing the results and flagging their potential as new therapies. "We have built a robot system that plans and conducts experiments with many substances, and draws its own conclusions from the results," said Dr. Claes Andersson, a leading scientist on the project, in a release. "The idea is to gradually refine combinations of substances so that they kill cancer cells without harming healthy cells." Release
